Water Treatment Plant for Sunchild First Nation Subdivision

Official title: Sunchild First Nation Package Water Treatment Plant

Closed Environmental Assessment Health & Safety Indigenous & Northern
Sunchild First Nation wants to build a temporary water treatment plant to serve 32 new homes in their subdivision. The plant would be installed on Lot 1 of Block 100, with water mains connecting to the new lots.

Why This Matters

This project brings clean drinking water to 32 families in a First Nation community. It's part of addressing the ongoing water infrastructure gap in Indigenous communities across Canada.

What Could Change

If approved, a temporary water treatment plant would be built to supply the new subdivision. This is a stepping stone while permanent water infrastructure is developed.

Key Issues

  • Is the proposed water treatment plant adequate for 32 lots?
  • What are the environmental impacts of the water supply infrastructure?

Indigenous Consultation

This consultation requires engagement with Indigenous communities under the Crown's duty to consult.
